Republican gains in Cincinnati. Demo
cratic gains reported in the interior coun-
ties 1t seems that favored Republican

ocratic gains seem strong. Too much reli-

this hour. No report from Belmont,

CINCINNATI, o., November S.-There

OF Ohio In 1855 the vote was rs follows:

Prohibition, y, ,Osl; Labor, 2.O0l; scatter.
ing, 2,774. Total 733, ,967. Foraker's plu-
rality over Hosdly, II, ,45l.
J. r. Foraker is the present Republican
candidate for Governor, 7. f. Powell IL the
Democratic candidate, Settle il the Union
Labor candidate, and Sharp the Prohibi-
tion candidate. Ia Hamilton county the
returns received at : o'clock indicate All
increased vote over that of 1895.
Then there was no perceptible
Labor vote. Now it is quite
a feature, exceeding in many pre-
cincis the vote of the Older parties Both
Republican and Democrat aggregates con-
sequently show falling of. Ia the first
returns the Democratic falling off IL greater
than the Republican. Sixteen precincts OF
Hamilton copIty show net Republican
gain Of 9l2 The relative vote is Foraker
1854, Powell |, 252, Settle 2s6, Sharp s.
Forty precincts mostly from Hamilton
county, show q net Republican gain of
] Alb; relative vote, Foraker 1889, Powell
Z, ,3S2, Seitz ], 26J, Sharp g.
Twelve precincts in Cleveland show
Republican gain over 1856 of 2Sl, and
three precincts Democratic gain Of %.
Thirty precincts in the State, about one
seventh of the whole number, give net
Republican gain of 4, 657; Foraker Al, ,479,
Powell 33, 929, Seiiz G,4O3, Sharp Z, l23.
Total sc, 934.
In Hamilton county the returns already
received show that Foraker has carried the
cOunty by n majority OF possibly
1900. Somes estimates place il higher
This, on consideration of the reports cur
rent during the day ihat Powell WAS re-
ceiving Union Labor votes, would justify
the conclusion that the entire county
ticket of the Republicans ia elected.
One hundred and fifty out of 207 pre-.
cincts in Hamilton county show Foraker
leading Powell by $500 plurality. 1t ia
claimed that the remainder OF the Repub-
lican ticket will have much larger msjori-
ties in the county.
Sixty-four precincts in Ohio snow net
Republican gain Of 1906, giving Foraker
9,Ol7, Powell 5, $40, Seit1 las, Sharp I6s.
-Four precincts in Cleveland give q Re.
publican gain Of SO and one precinct q
Democratic gain of 10.
IT'S COMING DOWN.
Eighty.seven precincts In Ohio show
net Republican gain of ,7i9, Foraker r.
4lI. Powell 1929, Seitz 2, S35, Sharp ia.
The absence Of the Union Labor vote in
1885, aud its large proportion now in Gin
cinnati causes an increase in the net Re.
publican gain in this place out Of proper
ton to the total vote. Where the Labor
vote has drawn more heavily from Demo-
Gratis than from Republicans, which i.
usually the case, the Republican gain is
increased. The Republican total may be
decreased. One hundred and eighteen
precincts in Ohio give q net Republican
gain of 1928, Foraker 16, 100, Powell TO-
s35, Seitz 2, ,924, Sharp See.
Six hundred precincts in Ohio out of g.
1G7, give net Republican gain Of 5,133.
From the best estimate that can be made
at this hour, the Union Labor vote Of
Hamilton county, will reach about IL, 900
or 1900. The prohibition vote In the
county il not more than l,OO1
